Set Up Lenses
Please be careful when installing or removing camera lens. Depending on your lens mount type and lens, pay
attention to following points:
•
If your lens has a mounting mark, first align lens-holder and lens mounting marks and then rotate
anti-clockwise to lock the lens. To remove the lens, unlock the lens-holder silver clip and rotate
clockwise until marks are aligned. Then remove the lens.
•
If your lens has a screw thread, rotate anti-clockwise to remove it and clockwise to installing it.
•
If you are removing the lens from the camera, always use a cap on the camera to avoid dust
infiltration.
Use also caps on both lens sides for the same reason.
•
Do not forget to remove the cap of your lens before using the camera.
